I have been waiting to post this because there are soooo many great events coming up. Mark your calendars!! The Holiday Disc Golf Showdown will be on Saturday, November 2nd. Once again, this will be at Terrace Hills Golf Course in Altoona and this awesome piece of property will be navigated in GOLF CARTS.

I am looking closely at my schedule to see if I am going to have the time to change the layout (either new layout on same side of course or new layout on other side of course). Lots of ideas -- we will see.

For those of you that have not been fortunate enough to make it to this the last two years, allow me to recap what you missed or preview what to look forward to:1. Inexpensive event (Cheaper than a C-tier and that includes the cart!!)2. Non-Sanctioned and beer for sale at the course .3. Hand made trophies/plaques each year (no cost to the payout)4. Fat player packs - (no cost to the payout)5. Monster ACE fund -- I think last years winner took home nearly $300.6. Mega Raffle -- I spend the whole year collecting items for the raffle and there are several generous individuals reading this that have contributed.7. Indoor awards along with good food and cold drinks.

I am excited. A lot of golf to be played between now and then, so mark your calendar now and don't miss out. I will post a flyer soon.

Just a couple updates to get this thread bumpin while working on getting the flyer posted:

1. The Des Moines Disc Golf Club has graciously sponsored this event once again. If all goes as planned that is straight added cash people!

2. Huge thanks goes out to G&L Clothing who have become one of the best supporters of disc golf in the Des Moines area for signing on once again to sponsor the shirts for the first 50 pre-registered players.

This is just the beginning. Tell your friends and don't miss this one.

Just as in the year's past, I need baskets to make this baby go. I have three committed so far. Let me know if you can loan me your basket for this. I will work out the details of securing them so we don't have any of the headaches from last year.

Once again, the first 50 pre-registered players (including pros) will receive a shirt along with their player packs. I have received a dozen emails so far asking for flyer to be emailed and most of them have replied that the money is on the way. Great reason to get your registration in.

I am accumulating prizes already and I am just getting started. Remember, let me know if you have anything you can throw in as a prize for the raffle. Last year's was the best yet and if I draw your number for a prize that you donated, I will make sure you get something else.

I have had a few people speak up on providing a basket. Let me know if you have a good basket to loan to the occasion and I will get a list posted soon.

I will likely be selling Hoodies again this year. Last year they were $20 each and assuming the cost on them is the same this year that will be the price once again. That price is tough to beat, so if you know you want a hoodie, let me know ahead of time so I can make sure and get the right sizes. The goal here is to break even on cost and not have any left over when I am done.

The events this year have been non-stop and I know some folks are burned out. Hopefully you all can refocus your energy into coming out and having a blast with me as we enjoy the 6th year of the Holiday Disc Golf Showdown. See you soon!
